Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Were there any people of color on night 2 of the RNC?

 Wednesday.  I had to get up 3 times during the night to let the dogs out.  You have to believe me, when Biggie has to go, Biggie has to go.  Crap!  I'm chalking it up to too much dinner.  I was thinking about the storm door that's going I'm going to be replacing at the back door.  I started pricing them out yesterday.  Now you have to remember, the last time storm door I purchased, about 26 years ago, cost around $65.  They've gotten pricier, by about 300%.  I hate spending money on the house because I know that I'm going to be selling when the dogs pass on to puppy heaven.

Night 2 of the RNC was evidently filled with a number of false and misleading statements.  Boy, are they keeping the fact-checkers employed which, oddly enough, proves that the Idiot Jerk has created jobs the pandemic hasn't taken away.  Here's what the NYT listed.  There was fact checking at the DNC Convention, but nothing like this.  

And can we talk about all the family members talking up the Idiot Jerk, trying to make a moral degenerate look better.  What's the saying?  You can't make a silk purse out of a pig's ear?  Let's be honest here, they're not even working with that.

I understand Melanoma said she knows what life is like to be an immigrant.  I guess that's true if you happen to be a model / call girl looking for anyone with deep pockets.  She was supposed to smooth out the Idiot Jerk's rough edges... sorry, she forgot her sandblaster.

As I looked through the commentary this morning, one thing stood out, except for the pardoning of Jon Ponder, I don't think there was another Black face to be seen.


Now, isn't that whitely benevolent of the Idiot Jerk?  Proof that he isn't a racist?  Gee.  Since I didn't watch I don't know for sure, but were there any people of color represented?  Asians?  Or does Niki Haley have them all covered?  Latinos?  Native Americans?  Were there any people of color at night 2 of the RNC?

  1. Well, he did hold an illegal naturalization ceremony for some of the brown people he's tried to ban from this country or called murderers.

    1. From what I've heard, this convention makes the Twilight Zone look normal.

    1. I understand the AG introduced someone and didn't actually give a speech.

  3. There were some BIPOC there. Some because they had to. Some because they wanted some favors. And Nikki, who wants to be president in 2024 and is preparing the terrain by looking slightly less delusional.
    The parade of hypocrisy, lies, projection and deflection was astounding. Melanoma spoke for more than twenty minutes and Cheeto looked pissed.
    As you said, the fact checkers were probably working overtime...

    1. Of course he'd look pissed, this is 'his' convention, not hers.

  5. I don't personally watch this crap, but I suppose technically that white is a color.

    1. I don't watch it either, but I do read about it and I think that technically white is a total lack of color.

  6. Thankfully I'm in bed when this is on, although even if I lived in the States I'm pretty sure I'd go to bed just to make sure I'd miss it. Well, either that or the local bar. You couldn't pay me to watch that!

    1. I don't watch it either. Reading about it is enough to give me heartburn.
